A contribution to make the classical period accessible to the trumpet: Of medium difficulty, Kristin Thielemann's arrangements of performance pieces and sonatas by James Hook (1746-1827) are ideal for tuition as well as for auditions and competitions. Several songs of Hook were arranged as instrumental pieces and serve as a good start into this repertoire. More advanced players may try the sonatas. Apart from the frequently played Sonata Op. 99/3, even lesser known sonatas might be interesting for the trumpet because of their well-chosen keys.
All the pieces have been recorded by Prof. Reinhold Friedrich (trumpet) and Eriko Takezawa (piano) as full version and play-along version.
